__NOTOC__
During the 1970s, research on drip irrigation was initiated at the Water Technology Centre, College of Agricultural Engineering, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University in Coimbatore, India. As a result of continuous research, extension and feedback from the field, the scientists introduced some economies (e.g. planting two plant rows for each drip line), and durability (e.g. installing the drip tape below the soil surface) in the drip irrigation system elements. Hence, considerable cost reductions can be made in system components and installation, besides increasing the lifespan of the components.
